Dependence of photoluminescence (PL) efficiency (ΦPL) of CdSe quantum dots (QDs) on coordinating solvents, precursors, and dispersing solvents was investigated. The ΦPL of CdSe QDs was ∼0.05 when synthesized at 120 °C using the precursors, cadmium acetate (CdAc) and trioctylphosphine selenide (TOPSe) in trioctylphosphine (TOP). The ΦPL was increased from 0.05 to ∼0.1 when coordinating solvents, trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) and hexadecylamine (HDA), were added to the above reaction mixture. The ΦPL was dramatically increased from ∼0.1 to ∼0.7 when CdAc was replaced by cadmium stearate (CdSt). The ΦPL of CdSe QDs synthesized using cadmium stearate (CdSt)/TOPSe/TOP/TOPO was measured in butanol, chloroform, hexane, and toluene and found that the ΦPL is strong dispersing solvent-dependent. The DFT analysis at b3lyp/lanl2dz level on the interaction of CdSe QDs with chemical environments showed that oxygen-containing molecules interact strongly with CdSe compared to non-oxygen containing molecules and could influence the ΦPL.

AbstractCdSe quantum dots (QDs) with several different ligands were prepared by ligand exchange reactions of trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO)/trioctylphosphine selenide (TOPSe) passivated QDs with an excess of new ligands, such as pyridine, 4-picoline, thiophenol, 4-(trifluoromethyl)-thiophenol, and tris(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate. We find that 85–90% of ligands passivating the surface of the QDs are the newly introduced capping species and 10–15% are native TOPO/TOPSe ligands, reflecting the incomplete exchange of the QD surface. Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and quantitative proton NMR measurements show that on average only 30% of surface cadmium atoms are passivated by TOPO/TOPSe. Approximately 1/3 of these native ligands occupy sites too strongly bound to be replaced by ligand exchange reactions.
